Yeah, such a message thrown randomly at the list would be too noisy
to be useful, but if it is sent to a specific thread as a response,
it would grab attention of those who are interested in the series,
which is exactly what we want.

So with what you added, the list of what is needed is now:

 - a fork of git.git and have Travis monitor any and all new
   branches;
 
 - a bot that scans the list traffic, applies each series it sees to
   a branch dedicated for that series and pushes to the above fork;

 - a bot (which can be the same as the above or a different one, as
   long as the former and the latter has a way to associate a topic
   branch and the original message) that receives success/failure
   notice from Travis, relays it as a response to the original patch
   on the list.
